Witness Account
On February 13, 2017, 14-year-old Liberty German and 13-year-old Abigail Williams were murdered while hiking along a trail near Delphi, Indiana. Before her death, Liberty German recorded audio and a brief video of a man on a bridge on her phone, which investigators released publicly. The phrase "down the hill" spoken by the man on the recording became central to the investigation. Richard M. Allen was arrested in October 2022 and charged with both murders; his trial is ongoing as of 2025 amid significant legal controversy and questions about evidence handling.
